As can be seen on this thread, where there are no comments about 'did she get her hands on the nuclear arsenal information he requested' or 'why is the old slimebag still in Parliament instead of Penitentiary'. Nope, it's all about 'how hot was the spy'. I blame James Bond.
The Spy Who Loved Me takes on a whole new meaning.
Barbara Bach was hot back in the day. :)
Not really. The fact is there are no secrets. About the only secrets that are kept, and not always either, are secrets about what we know and only for a few hours or days. It is silly that we spend the money we do to keep secret our satellite programs, yet, everyone that wants to know about them knows. Nuclear “secrets”? There are none. From at least Carter forward we have had enemies of the US working our most closely guarded nuclear secrets. I know a Palestinian that is a devout fanatical Muslim that seeks the destruction of the US and openly says so that helped design several nuclear weapons. I could go on and on but there are extremely few real secrets out there. The real purpose of classifications is to hide budgets and keep others from preying on them.
